A new application technique of circular fixator for the treatment of open tibial fractures: circular fixator-hinge technique.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to present and validate a hinge-fixator technique for the treatment of open tibial fractures, which has advantages in application and the follow up period. METHODS The technique was used in open tibia fractures of 14 adult patients. Using this method, initial anatomic reduction was achieved and temporary stability was obtained on the hinge-fixator after...
متن کاملOpen reduction and internal fixation compared with circular fixator application for bicondylar tibial plateau fractures. Surgical technique.
BACKGROUND Standard open reduction and internal fixation techniques have been successful in restoring osseous alignment for bicondylar tibial plateau fractures; however, surgical morbidity, especially soft-tissue infection and wound necrosis, has been reported frequently. For this reason, several investigators have proposed minimally invasive methods of fracture reduction followed by circular e...
متن کاملManagement of paediatric tibial fractures using two types of circular external fixator: Taylor spatial frame and Ilizarov circular fixator
BACKGROUND The use of circular fixators for the treatment of tibial fractures is well established in the literature. The aim of this study was to compare the Ilizarov circular fixator (ICF) with the Taylor spatial frame (TSF) in terms of treatment results in consecutive patients with tibial fractures that required operative management. METHOD A retrospective analysis of patient records and ra...
متن کاملDistal tibial reconstruction with use of a circular external fixator and an intramedullary nail. Surgical technique.
BACKGROUND Distal tibial reconstruction with use of an external fixator when there is bone loss, limb-length discrepancy, and/or ankle instability is associated with many problems. The technique of limb-lengthening, ankle arthrodesis, and segmental transfer over an intramedullary nail has been introduced to overcome these problems. The present study investigates this combined technique. METHO...
متن کاملTreatment of high-energy tibial plateau fractures by the Ilizarov circular fixator.
We treated 24 patients with high-energy fractures of the tibial plateau by the Ilizarov fixator and transfixion wires. Eleven fractures were open, and 20 patients had complex injuries. Twelve were treated by ligamentotaxis and percutaneous fixation, seven by limited open reduction and five by extensive open reduction. All were followed for at least 24 months. All the fractures united, with an a...
